Terry: The ship is going to use the Shoal zone outside the planetary system. Probably to play on the sensor problems.
*He hates going into a battlefield of someone else's choosing.*
Matt... I need you and the other Republic vessel to drop out and head over there. We are going to be flying into a shoal zone. Be wary of neutrino emssions, we need to cover the exits and make sure that ship has nowhere to run.
Matt: Are we bait?
Terry: No.. Even I wouldn't put you two on the opposite end of even a damaged Universe class variant. We will take the bait position. We just need you to route out the towing ships and get rid of them. I am betting the opposing Captain would love a chance to face us down.

Weston: No, Lieutenant. I'm stating the evidence. And the evidence says that at least one of you was in that Jefferies Tube, and we have a blood sample that places one of you sabotaging the replicator.
Fleeze, you worked with Johanna in Engineering.
Fleeze: Yes I did. What about it?
Weston: Flino, did you know about her injections?
*Outside, Dani is watching with John.*
Dani: Maybe interviewing them together was a mistake...
Flino: I don't know anything about any injections.
***
John: I agree. Usually you don't interview siblings together. or really multiple suspects period.
Weston: Fleeze?
*Outside.*
Dani: Let's give him one more minute.
Fleeze: I was aware of it yes. She had mentioned before that if she gets too excited she needs to take a suppressant so she can calm down.
OoC: Though its hard for them to get that excited it would only happen during sex or combat and even then being that excited doesn't harm them its to keep them from hurting others since they get stronger the more their adrenaline flows above their natural level

John: Very well. *He nods*
OOC: I believe Garrick was commanding the Indefatigable because it didn't have a full officer complement yet and Matt wanted it to have an experienced commander?
*R.S.S. Columbia.*
Weston: And you also have maintenance access to the control panel for her replicator.
OoC: Well no one does anything with my characters other than Ryan. Karn was in here for like 5 minutes.
Leeze: I have heard of it yes. *Flino keeps quiet*
***
*Garrick nods in the affirmative and has them follow at max speed*
Weston: She was poisoned. The poison was administered by a replicated hypospray reprogrammed to replace her medication with a toxic substance. We found fur in the Jefferies Tube: it came from one of you.
*OOC: Which one of them is the engineer? Is it Flino?*
*R.S.S. Enterprise. The two ships quickly catch up with the USS Enterprise, the three commanders in a channel together.*
Matt: Admiral, we need to find a way to bring them out of slipstream.
*The vessel on their sensors gets out of slipstream...*
Alvin: Sir they have dropped out of slipstream... In the Innotankan system...
*Terry looks at the commanders on the viewscreen.*
Terry: The ship is going to use the Shoal zone outside the planetary system. Probably to play on the sensor problems.
*He hates going into a battlefield of someone else's choosing.*
Matt... I need you and the other Republic vessel to drop out and head over there. We are going to be flying into a shoal zone. Be wary of neutrino emssions, we need to cover the exits and make sure that ship has nowhere to run.
Matt: Are we bait?
Terry: No.. Even I wouldn't put you two on the opposite end of even a damaged Universe class variant. We will take the bait position. We just need you to route out the towing ships and get rid of them. I am betting the opposing Captain would love a chance to face us down.
*In the Shoal Zone...*
Skull: *Observing the pursuers vessels. * A Universe class Federation vessel, and two Republic vessels... We have the cover of the shoal zone.
Jean how long until we have a shunt?
Jean: The other ships can buy us time... As can the drones.
Skull: If I know the Captain of the Enterprise... He will try and play it carefully but cunningly.
Have the teams get the shunt running quickly... I doubt the bait will last long.
*The two Republic ships drop out of warp.*
Matt: Captain, you take the Indefatigable and enter an Alpha-1 search pattern of the Shoal. We'll conduct and Beta-1 pattern. Keep your Epsilon-Projectors hot, in case one of us gets engaged the other can jump in to assist.
*The Enterprise J drops out of warp and begins a search pattern, they soon deploy some MS in search patterns. *
Terry: Alright give our MS teams visual orders in code... We are going to start firing.
Wade: Do it Commander...
*Sasha at her station starts sending old light signals to the MS teams to clear a path... They soon evade... *
Terry: Fire volleys into a low yield spread.
*They Enterprise J fires its old phaser blasts out into the shoal zone causing explosions on contact with derelict hulks... the explosions do not hit anything just yet. *
*On the Dreadnought, the ship rumbles as they watch the Enterprise searching for them the old fashion way.. *
Skull: Alright Admiral keep looking... Signal our defense team to engage the Republic vessels.
*The ships lie in wait for the RSS Enterprise and the Indefatigable... One of the four a smaller end cruiser fires at a hulk in the path of the RSS Enterprise causing the ship to rumble and their shields to go nuts. *
Novak is walking down a corridor to check on their guests. As he reaches their door an explosion rips through the ship a number of decks down. Novak gets up after a moment being moderately injured.
Novak: report! Bridge what the hell just happened! Bridge respond.
Not getting an answer he opens the door to the room Corvus was in seeing him unconscious on the floor. Not seriously injured though. Massi is also knocked out but otherwise uninjured
" Now the gate has been unlatched headstones pushed aside; corpses shift and offer room ,a fate you must abide."
Osman walks into her office after a string of meetings and de briefings.
Osman: coffee black.
She picks up the mug taking a long drink as atlas appears on her desk.
Atlas: I have the most recent reports from republic naval engagements ma’am.
Osman: good. Have they and the federation taken out the dreadnaught yet?
Atlas: no ma’am they are still engaged.
Osman: alright any new developments regarding the undine.
Atlas: not yet anyways. You did have a message for you when you got back though. It seems Carter wants to talk. Says he has something for you and Director Virsio of ONI for the unsc.
Osman: that makes me feel better already. Alright tell Rotek to meet me in the hangar in 30 min.

Benson: Reinforce Secondary Shields! Tactical, fire ZPBs on that last shot's vector!
*A quick spread of Zero-Point Beam blasts strike out at the cruiser.*

*The shots hit the vessel causing the damage to the ship and its shields, as the vessel leaves... Making the battle clearly one of wits, and cunning. *
*The Indefatigable is trying to find the other vessels out there... The enemy escort sneaks behind them firing their weapons full spread at the stern, and its shuttle bay.. Not seeing the hulk behind it.*
Tem: Sir... Enemy behind us damage to the shuttle bay. There is a derelict behind it...
*The USS Enterprise is still searching for the dreadnought. *
Sewell: maintain yellow alert for now. Who knows if they will strike again.
Tech: aye sir
Meanwhile
Novak: any update yet
Chief : I’m working as fast as I can. I told you we shouldn’t have brought the ship out this soon. I’m an engineer not a miracle worker.
Novak: at least get me sensors so I can know or at least find out what’s out there
OoC: Whats an ms team?
Fleeze: Yes I did. What about it?
*OOC: Bipedal machines that I had the Federation replace fighters with... *
Captain Kane: Helm bring us about and descend on the right flank of the battle. Fire up the Entropy systems and engage the enemy.
*A Klingon Commander steps up and begins to sing loudly beating his chest as he engages the systems. The Fleet engagement is now turning as the Raider part of the contingent starts raining fire on the smaller enemy escorts harassing the Republic vessels. *
Kane: Well there is something that would bring even the heartiest Kazon fear. A Klingon singing fearlessly as he wages battle. *With a small smirk... on his long face.*
Contact the Republic lead vessel the Federation is here to assist, and repay our debts.
OOC: Here you go, West. Also, the Indefatigable and R.S.S. Enterprise are searching the Shoal's outskirts in opposite orbits, ready to jump to the other if they get into trouble.

*Ghani watches from a secured view panel on the USS Enterprise the planetoid she heard... Her homeworld. Seeing it now she can't help but to pace and watch.. She is in an EV suit as per the general operations of the vessel in space combat. James is not there... he is on the other side of the room with his brother.*
Casval: I am happy that your moving on Jim...
James Jr: I have not really acted on it. Cas... I tried to talk to Mila...
Casval: *His face firms up... trying to hide disgust. * Why bother? She did not bother to go see you.
James Jr: Cas... Everyone messes up. God knows I have. I know she has too. She is my twin after all.
Casval: She did... and she left me here to pick up after the mess. To keep an eye on you. She stabbed me in the back and left me here.
James Jr: What happened after the...
Casval: I don't want to talk about it Jim. I don't want to open this scab.
James Jr: What is eating you brother.. ? You can tell me.
*Casval shakes his head and is soon called to his station on the bridge.*
Alvin: Casval we need you on the bridge. *Over the comm.*
*Casval steps out of the room and heads to the nearest turbolift.*
James Jr: What happened Cas...
Chief: I think I’ve isolated the problem. It should only take a moment to get main power back up.
Novak: time is of the essence chief please hurry.
Novak waits as he walks around the bridge.
Novak: my first mission alone as captain and this happens.
*OOC: Different engagement, the one Terry and Matt left in pursuit of the dreadnought. Just thought I should specify..*
*OOC: It is pretty quiet today...*
OoC: Why is he on the indefatigable?
Fleeze: I was aware of it yes. She had mentioned before that if she gets too excited she needs to take a suppressant so she can calm down.
